At the moment neutron-dynamic-routing does not support receiving routes
from its peers. If you look at the code, you'll see that the BGP will
handle any route updates it gets from a peer by simply invoking a no-op
routine that logs an info message [1]. You're not the first one to ask the
question, so if you can express a solid use case I think an RFE could be
crafted to support you. I just haven't seen the use case expressed by
anyone yet, but that's not to say it doesn't exist.
